摘要： Simplified laser drivers for closed path digital optical cables and digital optical cables including the simplified laser drivers. The laser driver can include less transistors than conventional laser drivers for optical communication cables. The laser can include a bias source and modulation source. The bias source can have a single constant current bias point for all laser diodes. The modulation current source can have a single temperature coefficient for all laser diodes. The laser driver can exclude, for example, any one of or combination of temperature compensation of the modulation or bias current sources, external programming of the modulation or bias current sources, power control based on output of the laser diode, and/or control based on feedback received from a monitor device or other sensor within the cables.

摘要： The present invention relates to controlling parameters of an optical output of an optical transmitter. An optical package can be selected based on a level of attenuation of a parameter of a transmitter output by the optical package. The laser and the optical package can be assembled and a parameter of the transmitter output can be measured. An optical barrel can be selected based on the measurement, wherein the optical barrel is selected based on an attenuation level to satisfy a range of a desired parameter value. The optical package and the optical barrel can be assembled. A system for assembling the optical device is also described.

摘要： An optical device is disclosed that includes a chip containing a Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser (VCSEL) active region that produces a laser beam on a first axis. The VCSEL can further include a post having a central axis offset a distance from the first axis. A lens can be mounted on the post such that it bends the laser beam away from the first axis. Alternately, the chip can include multiple VCSEL active regions each of which produces a laser beam on a different axis. The chip can include a post having a central axis offset from the laser beam axes. A lens can be mounted on the post such that the lens bends the laser beams away from the central axis.
